mixing KHX3200 and KHX3200A

I currently have 1 - 512 stick of Kingston KHX3200 in my P4C800-E Deluxe
motherboard and would like to add another 512 stick so I can get dual
channel, but the KHX3200 which I believe had BH5 chips can no longer be
purchased (even checked on E-bay and so far, nothing) so I am wondering can
I add a 512 stick of the KHX3200A and not have any problems. I believe the
KHX3200A has BH6 chips. I'm not overclocking anything. The KHX3200 timings
are 2-2-2-6 (that's what I have set up in the bios and memtest shows no
errors after numerous loops) and the KHX3200A is 2-3-2-6. Any advise would
be appreciated before I go ahead and get the KHX3200A.

You should be fine, just set the timings manually (to 2-3-2-6).
